I will tell the gentleman. Coffee is produced in Brazil on large. high tablelands without any shade at all. raised by cheap labor of Italian immigrants. Italian families have gone there with all the members of their families. and they all work on the coffee plantations. Work on coffee plantations is not hard. and in Porto Rico women are largely employed for picking the berry. In Brazil they get very small wages. in Brazilian money. which is very much depreciated. Those families are very thrifty and economical and they pay them with a few cents. Then they bring their coffee and they get American dollars in New York for it.
